Our hydro engineers are recently back from the USA after successfully completing the commissioning of our latest hydropower turbine in North America. The 867 kW Vertical Four Jet Pelton is installed on a water treatment facility in Wyoming, USA.
The project on Sherard Water Treatment Plant will utilise existing raw water pressure to power the City of Cheyenne's water treatment facility. Ground breaking on the project started 2 years ago, with a purpose built powerhouse. The Turbine is powered by water flows from Cheyenne’s water supply coming into the plant. The energy will be primarily used to power the treatment plant, which typically consumes 200 to 400 kilowatts, any remaining power will be sold back to the grid.
